Tbh imo any type of aviator from C152 pilots to Jaguar pilots to 747 pilots should be respected on the same level purely because they have achived something massive, earning their wings, this is something that not many people do. I mean ... look at the amount of PPL holders in the UK atm I think its roughly 25,000 (please correct me if I'm wrong) thats not alot, any pilot in the world has achieved masses and that should all be respected.
